Xiao Fan picked up an elephant ornament with high hopes because it was the biggest one. It was heavy as expected for a metal object, but after picking it up, the expected system prompt did not sound. It was just a bronze ornament, completely worthless.
He put the ornament back on the shelf and picked up a dolphin ornament. Still just bronze.
Xiao Fan took a deep breath and started to pick up these ornaments tirelessly, but there was no gain at all. Repeated hopes and repeated disappointments - when Xiao Fan picked up the last flamingo ornament, he finally gave up.
"I must have gone crazy for money. How could anyone leave gold ornaments here without fear of theft? Looks like I'll have to think of another way."
If he really couldn't collect any supplies, Xiao Fan would have no choice but to build an armored vehicle and let the soldiers get in and break out.
He believed he would be safe. The soldiers would protect him with their lives and escort him out, but the mission to rescue his sister would fail, and Xiao Fan would have to start over with production and construction again, which was unacceptable.
Feeling hesitant, Xiao Fan put down the last ornament. His hand unintentionally landed on the bronze shelf that held the ornaments.
Just as he touched it, Annie's system prompt suddenly sounded.
"Rare metal detected. Convert to system funds? Yes or no?"
Xiao Fan was stunned for a second, not even realizing what had happened at first.
Rare metal? Where?
After a second, he suddenly realized - it was talking about this shelf holding the ornaments!
But it clearly looks like bronze, even a little old, how could it be gold?
Excited, Xiao Fan took the shelf down and threw the ornaments aside to examine it carefully. Finally, he saw something off about it.
This thing was actually made of pure gold artificially aged!
Xiao Fan couldn't help but feel extremely delighted inside. He really didn't expect this!
The Boss really had a hobby of collecting gold, but his methods were more covert. The seemingly gold ornaments placed on top were actually just decoys. The real gold was these shelves that looked like bronze!
Even if someone wanted to steal from the Boss, they wouldn't dream that these bronze shelves were actually the treasures.
If not for Xiao Fan having the system, if not for him accidentally touching the shelf, the treasure right in front of him would have been missed!
Repair the road in the open, secretly make your own plans - not bad scheming from this Boss!
Xiao Fan didn't want to delve too deeply into the Boss's psychology for doing this. The most important thing right now was obtaining these gold shelves to resolve his urgent dilemma!
This shelf in his hand weighed at least 3-4 kg, and there were 4 shelves here!
Xiao Fan immediately converted the shelf into system funds without hesitation.
Conversion successful. Xiao Fan obtained 3500 gold!
That meant each shelf was about 3.5 kg!
Xiao Fan immediately took away all the ornaments and converted the 4 shelves into system funds.
The four gold shelves provided Xiao Fan with 14000 gold!
With such a huge profit, Xiao Fan was overjoyed. A sense of getting rich quick smashed into his head.
Added to the previous 4200 gold, his funds now totaled 18200 gold!
He had never had so much money before. Xiao Fan immediately upgraded to Lieutenant.
"Confirm upgrade to Lieutenant. Subordinates meet full quota conditions. 10,000 gold fund condition met. Upgrade complete!"
10,000 gold deducted. System notified upgrade complete.
Xiao Fan first claimed the Lieutenant level welcome gift.
Claiming the gift, he instantly completed the outfit change from Sergeant to Lieutenant.
[Lieutenant Uniform: Custom uniform made by the Red Alert system for the Commander, has shaping and insulation functions, and can resist most pistol fire.]
[Lieutenant Medkit: Contains 3 trauma meds, 3 bandages, 3 regular serums, and 1 enhanced serum. Enhanced serum can restore 50% zombie-transformed people back to normal.]
[Lieutenant Sidearm: NP34 military pistol, 200m effective range, 15 rounds.]
[Lieutenant Vehicle: Dongfeng Brave Warrior military jeep, weighs 5 tons, length 4698mm, width 2174mm, height 2412mm. System retrofitted as convertible, equipped with 1 7.62mm machine gun, light armor and bulletproof glass, with basic combat capabilities.]
In an instant, Xiao Fan changed into the new clothes, got a new sidearm, and had a new car key in hand.
No need to ask, he knew the car was parked downstairs.
Dongfeng Brave Warrior, the steel behemoth he didn't even dare dream of before, was his car now.
The medkit also had an enhanced serum that could restore 50% zombie-transformed people back to normal. Xiao Fan found this a bit confusing.
Zombies were zombies, how could there be 50%?
What was that? Stopped halfway through mutation?
Xiao Fan shook his head, not bothering to analyze this for now. He needed to check out the new soldier types immediately.
In the vehicle page, there were new vehicles.
[212 Jeep: 700 gold]
[Canteen Truck: 1000 gold]
[Ambulance: 1500 gold]
Only 3 new vehicles. 212 was probably the Sergeant's vehicle. The canteen truck and ambulance meant there would be cooking squad and medical soldiers.
Xiao Fan immediately opened the soldier page. His eyes lit up - quite a lot of new soldiers!
[Cooking Squad Soldier: 200 gold. Note: Can choose cooking squad soldier's hometown for different regional cuisines.]
[Medical Soldier: 200 gold. Note: Can choose male or female medical soldiers. Males have more strength for emergency aid and stretcher bearing. Females have more patience for aiding recovery.]
[Communications Soldier: 300 gold. Note: Vital for coordination. Can contact outside world through personal radio.]
[Rocket Soldier: 1000 gold]
[Heavy Machine Gun Squad: 2000 gold. Note: Squad of 3 soldiers.]
After seeing the 5 new soldier types, Xiao Fan was ready to explode with excitement.
Lieutenant level really changed everything. Got cooking squad for living needs, specialized medical soldiers for aid.
When giving orders, he could also command in an imposing manner, "Communications soldier!"
Getting rocket soldiers and heavy machine gun squads filled his biggest weakness of weak firepower.
With over 8000 gold now, he could go on a spending spree!
With that firepower, what mutant beasts and zombies would not tremble before him!
Just as Xiao Fan wanted to splurge, the system prompt sounded again.
"Congratulations Commander on promotion to Lieutenant. Please set troop quota."
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
Heart] Chen Yi traversed the cultivation world for eight hundred years, charging his way to the Tribulation Transcendence stage. Just as he was outwitting his 81st Heavenly Tribulation to ascend to immortality, he was suddenly pulled into a chat group called the "Multiverse Transmigrators Support Group." To his surprise, the group was filled with nothing but fresh-faced newbies who had just transmigrated. [Help! I transmigrated into a disgraced concubine in the cold palace, and the tyrant emperor is about to execute me!] [I ended up as a cannon-fodder villain, and the protagonist is still chasing me—WTF!] [I woke up as the protagonist’s father, but I’m about to be sacrificed in a ritual! What do I do? Urgent!!!] Chen Yi stared at the chaotic flood of desperate pleas in the group and fell into deep thought. "Seriously? You drag me into a newbie transmigrator chat group… only after I’m one step away from becoming an immortal?"
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
Cheng's father told him he was getting remarried—to a wealthy woman. Cao Cheng realized his time had finally come: he was about to become a second-generation rich kid. Sure, it might be a watered-down version, but hey, at least he'd have status now, right? The wealthy woman also had four daughters!! Which meant, starting today, Cao Cheng gained four stunning older sisters?? But that wasn't even the whole story... "My name is Cao Cheng—'Cheng' as in 'honest, smooth-talking gentleman'!"
